”My perfect summer day starts at 7am. I make a smoothie with some
chia seeds in it, I get a little notebook and a pen, and then I go to
the beach. Or to any high hill. And then I just sit there by myself in
the sun, writing, drawing. Being one with the world.”

”I grew up hiking mountains, camping, chasing waterfalls… Nature has
always been a major part of my life. People tend to feel so lost and
alone, when you go into nature, that’s when you realise that you are
not alone. All things are nature, we are nature, the things we build
are nature.”

”My last name is Red Thunder because I am Native American. It is a
very powerful name. It was actually supposed to be White Thunder, but
they mistook my great-grandfather’s name when he came across the
Canadian border. I have been dancing at pow wows all my life. I have a
huge family, and I grew up very close to my grandmother. She is full
blood Native American and grew up on farmland, like in a tipi. That
was so awesome.”

When you go into nature, that’s when you realise that you are not
alone.

”My summer go-tos are airy, flowy sheer things. I love the colour
white and all blue hues. It is so pretty when you match the summer sky.”
